    Like my disc less version as just a casual gamer and don't use it for DVDs works well and decent deals will need more storage space if you want more games ready

    Normally, I don’t pay attention to Xbox consoles, but as a long time PlayStation user, I can confidently endorse this console. It’s incredibly small, just barely the size of a book, and it runs amazingly smooth, haven’t had any performance issues yet! This console is perfect for someone who wants a new console on a budget!

    Why you should get a Xbox Series S

    The Xbox Series S is a compelling choice for gamers seeking an immersive and affordable gaming experience. Its compact design and lower price point make it an attractive option for both casual and dedicated gamers. Despite being the more budget-friendly version of the Xbox Series X, the Series S delivers impressive performance with its custom SSD and powerful GPU.

    I’ll say this swiftly, the Series S with the game pass is the best bang for your buck compared to all next gen console deals so far out.

    Very good design and controller. Crisp movement and the remote play was almost seemless. Combined with game pass, this is the ultimate entry level next gen console. I will be getting the x for the 4k/120 but I'll hate to let this go.

    No issues great buy, although if you haven’t gotten one yet I’d wait for the black 1tb series s that’s coming out pretty soon. Only difference is twice the storage and the color I believe. The storage is a HUGE factor in my opinion, what you get with this one is nowhere close to what is actually practical, currently you can download two games at most, MAYBE 3.

    Very sufficient and much more affordable price than the other popular gaming systems. I find the quality, image, and speed to be a step up from my PS4, im very happy with the quality, until I am able to get my hands on a better system this one will definitely last. Only downfall these downloads take up so much available storage im having to uninstall alot.

    Much better than the Series X for sub-4K gaming

    I downgraded from the Series X because it was overkill for my 1440, 60Hz monitor. Also didn’t have much use for disk drive since I only play on Game Pass. I was very pleased with the size of the Series S. It is relatively so much more portable and a pleasure to haul on a trip or to another room in the house. It is ultra quiet and runs cool. The long-overdue solid state drives virtually eliminate load times. Very pleased with this purchase. If you don’t need the disc drive or 4K, go with this instead.
